Welcome! You will have a blast. My suggestions about GPS devices is to consider the Garmin Etrex series. Specifically a model that is HCx for hi sensitivity, color screen and allows for a memory card. A hi sensitivity chip is a must and will help you under heavy cover. You also will want a GPS that will allow for download of maps and waypoints. Most Etrexes will do that. Amazon.com has the legend for about $210. Welcome again!
